I thought it'd be fun to share these in honor of the upcoming holiday. I love me some cupcakes! Nothing too difficult with this one. Just a white box mix for the cake. (But for you more seasoned bakers out there feel free to go all out and whip up one of your favorite homemade versions.) I used a buttercream frosting. You can find a printable recipe here. (See below) Find some pull & peel red licorice and blueberries and you have yourself a tasty 4th of July treat. I found some cute star shaped muffin tins that were a fun added touch, but definitely not required. YUM!

Beat sugar, butter, milk and vanilla with electric mixer at low speed until well blended and smooth. If frosting becomes too thick, beat in additional milk by teaspoonfuls until the frosting is of spreading consistency. (Makes about 2 1/2 cups frosting.)

Ok, now it's your turn to share. Just link up below. And Happy Tuesday, Y'all!

Your cupcakes are super cute! Being Canadian I don't really have a reason to make US Flag cupcakes - I'd probably get some strange looks if I brought those to the Canada Day festivities this Thursday. :) But they really are adorable. I love buttercream frosting too!

Hey Alicia, I don't even know if it's still Tuesday where you are - it's wednesday morning here, but I had a computer-free day yesterday... it was kinda cool! I painted my daughter's room (well, one wall) and her shelf. I love painting and decorating. Hope you like the berry white choc muffins; they are super easy and super yummy!
